Hi all
I have a hypothetical plumbing question.
Let’s say you have two pipes with the same pumps running at 100%
The first pipe is 10’ long and is then reduced 3/4” for 1’. It produces 100 gph. So the total length is 11’
The second pipe is 11’ of all 3/4 pipe. Will the second pipe maintain the 100 gph or will it drop?
What I am trying figure out is if running 1 inch pipe from my return when the tank has a 3/4 inlet has any flow advantages over all 3/4 pipe.
